Title: Full power shifting - DSG 1st-2nd - ESP nonsense!
Post by: rich83 on March 27, 2011, 03:57:24 pm: Ive had this happen to me twice today. Full power shift from 1st to 2nd with the paddles whilst exiting a corner, and as soon as it hits 2nd gear the ESP cuts the engine! :sad1:

Im guessing that as it swaps to 2nd, a little burst of torque momentarily spins the wheels. Its a bit annoying tho. :mad:

Anyone else had this before?

Post by: Richn83 on March 27, 2011, 06:56:31 pm: I had this just the other day rich was wondering if it was a issue with the DSG felt completely dead before picking back up again! Rather annoying when you need to get a move on.
